Actual exam question for Google's Professional Cloud Developer exam

Question #: 103
Topic #: 6

[All Professional Cloud Developer Questions]

You work on an application that relies on Cloud Spanner as its main datastore. New application features have occasionally caused performance regressions. You want to prevent performance issues by running an automated performance test with Cloud Build for each commit made. If multiple commits are made at the same time, the tests might run concurrently. What should you do?

ACreate a new project with a random name for every build. Load the required data. Delete the project after the test is run.

BCreate a new Cloud Spanner instance for every build. Load the required data. Delete the Cloud Spanner instance after the test is run.

CCreate a project with a Cloud Spanner instance and the required data. Adjust the Cloud Build build file to automatically restore the data to its previous state after the test is run.

DStart the Cloud Spanner emulator locally. Load the required data. Shut down the emulator after the test is run.

I bet the developers who come up with these exam questions have a blast trying to trip us up. 'Delete the project after the test?' Sounds like a recipe for disaster!

Why not just use a single project and instance, and reset the data state after each test? Option C sounds like the most efficient and cost-effective approach.

Creating a new project for every build is a bit overkill, in my opinion. Option A might work, but it could get expensive with all the project creation and deletion.

I'm not sure, I think option D could also work well. What do you think?

I like the idea of using the Cloud Spanner emulator locally, as it avoids the overhead of provisioning and deleting instances. Option D could be a good choice if the emulator accurately represents the production environment.
